Fact #1: Historically, the FCHR has had a slight negative bias against complainant’s who are not black.
Evidenced by the disparity of its 13% rate and its 9% rate [for 'cause' determinations] between the two groups.
Takeaway #1: Despite its racial preferences, the FCHR still maintains a practice of rendering no cause determinations at a high rate.
Note #2: these records come from a subset of all complaints. Reason: complainant's don't always indicate their race when filing FCHR complaints (see disclaimer).
...POINTS & THINGS...
Congratulations! You're now booked up on how often the FCHR enters 'cause'/'no-cause' determinations for people in these two distinct groups!
